Directory Services White Papers

Forestprep and Domainprep Explained in Detail

Overview Larger organizations do not want their messaging administrator team to have high-level domain or enterprise rights because these tasks will be done by experienced Windows Administrators. It is common for Exchange administrators to be in a separate team from the Windows / Active Directory Administration team. For organizations that don't have a structure like this stated, ForestPrep and DomainPrep separates the Exchange 2003 setup tasks that require high-level network permissions from those that do not. This paper gives the reader a detailed overview of the Microsoft Exchange Forestprep and Domainprep process.
